No business that is in operation now will be affected.” The ordinance is equipped with a grandfather clause, contrary to the postcard alert. According to this clause, all businesses that are currently in operation are not affected. The postcard was signed from “The Salem Township Information Group?’ The group failed to provide their own information, as there is no contact ~name,phone number or• mail, and the group is untraceable. This same group had sent out a letter to some home-based businesses in May. The letter incorrectly wams, “The Salem Board of Trustees is about to pass a new ordinance that will drastically curtail or close down most home businesses or any business in an area not zoned commercial?’ It provides the home• phone number and address of Paula Hornback, the chair of the Planning •Commission and urges people to contact Hornbaek because, “Your business depends on it?’ STAFF WRITER Last week Salem residents received a mystery postcard warning that the township is trying to shut down home businesses. The postcard is without factual basis, so it might be nothing more than an electionrelated scare tactic. Salem Township is revising the home business section of its zoning ordinance. The Salem Township planning commission is holding a public hearing and possible vote at 7:30 p.m. meeting. If approved, the ordinance will then go to a vote at a future board of trustees meeting. This ordinance doesn’t regulate or shut down businesses as the postcard warns. It only specifies which type of businesses can be operated in residential zoning. It is not more restrictive than the previous ordinance it merely clarifies the current ordinance. “There are no major changes,” said Zoning Administrator Bill DeGroot. “Nobody’s looking to close — “Nobody’s looking to close down any businesses. No business that is in operation now will be affected.”, 811! DeGroot • Hombaek addressed the letter at the May 11 township board, meeting. She explained that a grandfather clause is in place, so that the ordinance does not affect any business currently in operation. She also explained that the ordinance is not any more restrictive,, but simply clarifies the existing ordinance. Kate Phillips is a reporterfor the South Lyon Herald.
